Reform of the governance and structure of the Boards of Appeal
IPKat reports on the discussions concerning the reform of both the governance and the structure of the Boards of Appeal.
The proposals of the Board 28 of the Administrative Council (AC) are said to "enhance the visibility of the independence and autonomy of governance". No amendment of the EPC is foreseen.Regarding the speculation that the EBoA is to be moved to Berlin, Mr Kongstad's response until now is a diplomatic "no comment".
